Things were different in the periphral nations, than in the center. Those who read your comments with heritage from the peripheral will understand you, and the others will not.

It wasn’t even a final peace state, so it could easily have been pushed sideways in the future, and clearly the Americans wanted the win so badly that they would have let anything happen at the finish line.

Russia is still ramping up military production on a wartime economy, to be used after the Ukrainians stop fighting back. Also their production focuses on their modern options for land and air. I don’t know what their naval production is doing.

Your English was on point, and any outdoorsie types understood you. This is just one of those things that is called different names in different regions.

Sinophobia and russophobia are terms that refer to ethnic racism, heavy leveraged by tankies to position political disagreement as racist. In these cases I don’t think that the fear was a ethnic based, but rather capitalist or nationalist.

The fear is still unjustified. It’s like thinking that you can trust Amazon more than Ali, or Google more than Xiaomi.

There is plenty of racism against Chinese/Asian people, which is a different level of vile.

Does Nordstream connect Russia to the US?

Which one? The one where Russia is a threat to Europe?

I hate that this is accurate

It is capitalist perspective, but not propaganda.

If there is meant to be capitalist competition then the competitors should not be massively funded by the government. China massively funds their electric car industry, principally because they own them.

That said, US carmakers get Government bailouts all the time.
